Biography

Her first novel, Le Cœur cousu [fr], released discreetly in February 2007, received numerous prizes thereafter.[2][3] Her second novel, Du domaine des Murmures [fr], was short-listed for the prix Goncourt (the prize eventually went to L'Art français de la guerre by Alexis Jenni with five votes, and three to Carole Martinez[4]).
